Elsevier Foundation-TWAS Launches Sustainability Expert Program for Developing Countries

The Elsevier Foundation - TWAS Sustainability Visiting Expert Program has been launched to assist scientists from developing countries by enabling short-term visits to institutions where they can provide expert knowledge and training. Focusing on sustainability, the program aims to tackle key challenges in developing regions, particularly in fields such as environmental science, agriculture, and climate change.

Visiting experts will contribute through lectures, workshops, and collaborations with local researchers, enhancing the scientific capacities of host institutions and fostering knowledge exchange between scientists in the Global South. The initiative is designed to strengthen research capabilities and address pressing sustainability issues in these regions.

Eligible applicants must possess a strong academic and research background, and institutions in developing countries are encouraged to request an expert to visit their facilities. The program provides coverage for the travel and accommodation expenses of the visiting experts.

This program serves as a vital resource for promoting scientific collaboration and advancing sustainability goals in developing nations.
